Hudson‚ his son John and eleven other crew members sailed from England on the Hopewell ship. They went past the Greenland and towards the North Pole. Hudson and his crew hoped if they would find an easier way to get from England to the Far East of the Arctic Ocean.

ecosystems. The marine environment has been threatened by climate change. Glaciers‚ ice caps‚ and the sea ice cover area have been decreasing due to the global warming. Since 1920‚ primarily due to the climate change‚ glaciers and ice caps across the Arctic have shown shrunk lessens in volume and glacier fronts‚ leading to the rise of sea lever (Prowse et. al‚ 2009a‚ p.277). Moreover‚ the annual averaged area of sea ice in Northern Canada has decreased by 7.4% from 1978 to 2003 (Prowse et. al‚ 2009a

The beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) is a cetacean inhabiting the marine arctic and is found throughout the arctic seas as well as smaller seas such as the Beaufort Sea‚ the Chukchi Sea‚ the Bering Sea‚ Cook Inlet‚ and several other seas (Frost and Suydam‚ 2010). This species is migratory and will migrate to shallower coastal waters during the summer‚ but as winter approaches they travel back to the northern icy waters (Goetz et al.‚ 2012). Beluga’s feed on small fish‚ as well as squid‚ octopus

Melting Ice Caps The Arctic is global warming’s canary in the coal mine. It is a highly sensitive area which is profoundly affected by the changing climate. The average temperature in the Arctic is rising twice as fast as elsewhere in the world (nrdc.org). Because of this‚ the ice cap is getting thinner‚ melting away‚ and rupturing. Here is an example of this; the largest ice block in the Arctic‚ the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf‚ had been around for 3000 years before it started cracking in 2000 (nrdc

Oxygen – Carbon dioxide Cycle The Carbon Dioxide- Oxygen Cycle relates to the relationship between Carbon Dioxide [CO2] breathing plants and Oxygen [O2] breathing life forms. All oxygen-breathing life forms take in Oxygen and exhale CO2. Plants take in the CO2 and use it in their photosynthesis process and in turn give off oxygen. The Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle is a continuously occurring process whereby animals inhale Oxygen and then exhale carbon dioxide‚ and plants use the CO2 and "exhale"
